The game has a learning curve which you need to understand and get used to. It'll take some time. However, the devs have designed the game in a way to improve everyone's playstyle over time.

This.

That said, it doesn't address the difficulty, which is a design choice. Probably based off laziness to save work. The only thing that changes is monster attack power.

There is no "easy" mode. It doesn't exist. You have to master the learning curve or never get anywhere. "Easy" just lets you survive longer.

Ultimately, this means once you beat the game in easy, there isn't much change to Nightmare, and it makes all the Nightmare players who talk down to newbies look like fools.

This guy is correct. The difficulty is minor compared to mastering the game, and the only real jump in difficulty from there is Master levels and Battlemode.

Hope that answers your question. Just don't turn into an unhelpful elitist after beating the game like half of the forum members. The real difficulty is mastering the mechanics, not the game mode.

LOL, and yet the enemy count and combat mechanics is 100% the same as Nightmare.

So all you have to do is beat easy, and TADAH, you can beat Nightmare. Freaking hilarious you think Nightmare is special, when it's really special ed. Anyone who masters the combat on easy can beat Nightmare. Nightmare is the same game, except you have to be more efficient at avoiding damage.

Easy just gives you the ability to last longer, which means less save reloading and more time to master the mechanics. It's Nightmare training mode.

The damage increase does mean you have to be good enough to stay alive, but the game is designed to FORCE players to learn that even on easy, so you can literally go straight from easy mode last boss to level 1 Nightmare and be fine. You won't be able to beat the last boss without having enough skills to beat level 1 in Nightmare. It just take time to master.

It's not some mystical difficulty mode. It's just the mode meant for people who've learned how to efficiently play the game. Go play the Master Levels if you want a real challenge, because Nightmare isn't.

No problem. Sounded like you were having some confusion with how the game actually works, not to mention grammar.

We should all now do a standing ovation for your accomplishments, because that's clearly what you wanted instead of helping the OP. He's just a scrub that needs to git gud or something, and doesn't deserve any explanation further than "I beat the game in Nightmare, so you suck", which is the general response we all give here for any issue, related or not.

OMG seriously? Enemies don't even attack on lowest difficulty.
Damage does almost nothing.

"It's Nightmare training mode", also ridiculous. After playing on easy, you get your ass kicked on NM because you lost the dance after falling half asleep while doing an easy run.

But ok, try it, do an easy run and than go play the SGN master lvl on high difficulty. You'll see how good you are "trained".
